HLCS Launches Student Sponsorship Program: A Dollar a Day!

McLean, VA – Holy Land Christians Society (HLCS) a non-profit charitable organization based in McLean, VA launched last week its Student Sponsorship Program: A Dollar a Day! Through A Dollar a Day! program, HLCS hopes to sponsor students in the Bethlehem area in Terra Sancta Schools for boys and girls and other Christian private schools. By donating US$1.00 a day for a whole year, sponsors are able to cover a child's tuition in the Bethlehem area for a complete school year.

A Dollar a Day! Program covers the tuition cost for a child studying at a Christian private school in the Bethlehem area.  The program provides $400 a year for eligible students in which you provide $365 (one dollar per day), and HLCS matches the rest.

Students are selected solely based on their financial needs and merit. Students who qualify for this program will be chosen by a Bethlehem committee and their names will be sent to HLCS through Father Amjad Sabbara, Pastor of the Church of the Nativity of Bethlehem. 

Given the current situation, most families struggle to pay for their children’s school tuition.  Through A Dollar a Day! program, sponsors can make a difference in the lives of many families in the Holy Land who struggle to learn and find adequate educational opportunities.

One dollar a day, although seems insignificant, makes a remarkable difference in the life a child; It gives them an education for a complete year!

You can sponsor a child in the Bethlehem area for A Dollar a Day! now. Please complete this form.
